Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The purpose of the study is to create and use a simple, but very effective mobile application available for use during the learning process, as well as for student’s independent work after university hours. We have used the X code integrated development environment, developed by Apple for iPhone and iPad, in order to create the application. Our mobile application was used as an element of the digital educational resource in physics and mathematics. Natural and technical students have also used it to prepare for the interim assessment, external evaluation and a unified national testing. Using a mobile application allows a student to make up for the worn out or missing laboratory equipment, to use a large database of reference data without long searching, to create, modify and use software packages. The listed capabilities of a mobile application, ultimately, improve the quality of student’s knowledge.
